Gourmet Cooking for One or Two: Incredible Meals that are Small in Size but Big on Flavor
Gourmet Cooking for One or Two provides must-have comfort food–inspired recipes full of the flavors you’d expect in a large casserole, soup or stew, but scaled down to just one or two servings. Now you won’t have tons of leftovers that, despite the best intentions, get tossed or end up in the back of the freezer. You can cook elevated dishes—usually reserved for big occasions—just for you, any night of the week.
You’ll find updated classics, simple one-pan dinners and 30-minute single-serving dishes suit- able for chefs of any level. Try Molasses-Braised Short Ribs with Pan-Seared Onions, Steak House Dinner, Two-Slice Sun-Dried Tomato and Sausage Lasagna or Spinach Pork Roulade with Arugula Prosciutto Salad. Forget takeout, grocery store salad bars and frozen entrées. This book proves that cooking for yourself can be just as special as cooking for a crowd!
The Pleasures of Cooking for One: A Cookbook
From the legendary editor of some of the world’s greatest cooks—including Julia Child and James Beard—a passionate and practical book about the joys of cooking for one.
Here, in convincing fashion, Judith Jones demonstrates that cooking for yourself presents unparalleled possibilities for both pleasure and experimentation: you can utilize whatever ingredients appeal, using farmers’ markets and specialty shops to enrich your palate and improve your health.
You can feel free to fail, since a meal for one doesn’t have to be perfect; and you can use leftovers to innovate—in the course of a week, the remains of beef bourguignon might be reimagined as a ragù, pork tenderloin may become a stir-fry, a cup or two of wild rice produces both a refreshing pilaf and a rich pancake, and red snapper can be reinvented as a summery salad.
It’s a fulfilling and immensely economical process, one perfectly suited for our times—although, as Jones points out, cooking for one also means we can occasionally indulge ourselves in a favorite treat.
Throughout, Jones is both our instructor and our mentor, suggesting basic recipes—such as tomato sauce, preserved lemons, pesto, and homemade stock—that all cooks should have on hand; teaching us how to improvise using an ingenious strategy of building meals through the week; and supplying us with a lifetime’s worth of tips and shortcuts.
From Child’s advice for buying fresh meat to Beard’s challenge to beginning crêpe-makers and Lidia Bastianich’s tips for cooking perfectly sauced pasta, Jones’s book presents a wealth of acquired knowledge from our finest cooks.
The Pleasures of Cooking for One is a vibrant, wise celebration of food and enjoying our own company from one of our most treasured cooking experts.

The Keto For One Cookbook:100 Delicious Make-Ahead, Make-Fast Meals for One (or Two) That Make Low-Carb Simple and Easy
With Keto For One, get 100 delicious dishes for every meal of the day—perfectly proportioned and macro-balanced.
Single-serve cooking is one of the biggest challenges when trying to adhere to an eating plan. Most recipes are portioned for 4–6 servings, which means you’ll be eating the same thing for a week or trying to adjust recipes and struggling to figure out proper cooking times and fractions of measurements.
With keto, you also have the additional challenge of balancing your macronutrients—a few too many carbs or not enough fat and your recipe is no longer in the ketogenic zone.
No more fussing with recipes. No more eating leftovers. No more wasted food (or money!). No more cobbling together snacks and calling it a meal. No more temptation to give into carb-laden, nutrient-void, single-serving convenience foods.
Just delicious recipes from “low-carb queen” and best-selling author Dana Carpender. Enjoy delicious keto burgers and smoothies, as well as quick skillet stir-fries and plenty of tasty meals that can be pulled together quickly or ahead of time.
